Roger Varian sent out the smart Barsanti to win this in 2016 and FUJAIRA PRINCE is similarly progressive at this stage of his career. The latter scored by three lengths at Doncaster on his handicap debut and this longer trip will suit. Crystal King is another likely to go on to better things than handicapping after making a winning return at Wolverhampton while though First Eleven came up short in Group 3 company when last in action he won over today’s trip at Ascot before that and has the beating of Corgi on collateral form. An easy winner at Yarmouth, Stealth Fighter steps up in class though is still preferred to stablemate Red Galileo while Collide makes more appeal than the penalised Rare Groove having scored over today’s trip at Kempton on his reappearance.
